Getting started
Your first short link in a minute.
1. Create your account
Sign up with your name, email, a password and the name of your business. We will email you a link to confirm your address — click it to start creating links. If it does not arrive within a few minutes, check your spam folder or use “Send the email again”.
2. Create your first short link
Paste a long web address into the box on your dashboard and press Shorten. For more options, choose Create link:
- Custom ending — for example spring-sale. Leave it blank for a random one.
- Title and tags — only you see these; they make links easy to find.
- Domain — choose your branded domain if you have one.
- Expiry date — on paid plans, the link stops working after this time.
3. Share it
Press Copy and paste the link wherever you like, or open QR code to download it for print.
4. Check the results
Open any link to see its clicks, unique visitors, QR scans, locations, referrers and devices. The Analytics page shows everything in your workspace together.
5. Change it later
Choose Edit on a link to change its destination, title, tags or expiry, or switch it off. The short link and QR code stay the same.
